2013 Map of Tyndall Meadows

About this map

Tyndall Meadows serves as a central point in this high-elevation landscape within the Boise National Forest in Idaho. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages, including the Deadwood River and Johnson Creek, which cut through prominent features like Tyndall Ridge and Deadwood Summit. This 2013 survey captures the area’s importance for recreation and forest management, highlighted by the Blue Point Campground and the remote Whiskey Cabin located near Whiskey Creek. The Landmark Stanley Rd provides the primary traverse through the meadows and basins, such as Pen Basin in the north. This map is an essential reference for understanding the modern hydraulic patterns of the Idaho backcountry, showing how smaller tributaries like Swamp Creek and Rock Creek feed into the region's larger river systems.
